in phases.We would like to request
all community members to cooperate
with our team-members engaged in the
collection and compilation of data. The
collection and compilation of the data
through a newly procured comprehensive
software will ensure availability and
analysis of community statistics and pave
the way for the formulation and designing
of policies and plans, both short term and
long term. A complete system of levels of
accessability has been incorporated in
the software so as to ensure that the data
collected remains confidential.
Indeed, the task cannot be accomplished
without the cooperation of the community
members. Apart from multiple advantages,
the Jamaat intends to issue digitalized ID
and Health Cards to each member of the
family, in order to provide access to the
Health and other facilities provided by the
KPSIAJ.
Library and Reading Room
The importance of a well stocked library in
promoting education, general awareness
and developing reading habit cannot be
denied. Having remained unused for
some time, the Jamaat Library has now
been refurbished and air-conditioned to
facilitate users, particularly our students,
to pursue their quest for knowledge in a
pleasant environment. About 5000 titles
are available with regular additions every
month The library is now equipped with
2 computers to facilitate library users,
and would be especially helpful to the
students.
Library facility is available to members
upon a nominal membership fee.
Sports Activities
Mental and physical fitness are
interdependent. To promote healthy
activities among the youth, the Sports sub
committee is entrusted to undertake steps
for engaging our youngsters in sports.
Jamaat also acquires the services of
professional coaches on payment.
Coaching classes are conducted from time
to time for karate, table tennis, cricket
and football. Indoor games are organized
at the FEN premises while matches for
cricket and football are organized at
various grounds in the city. The interest
and participation of the youth in sporting
events is growing rapidly.
A professional table tennis coach provided
training to our boys aged 8 to 16 years
during the Summer Camp. Badminton
courts have been developed in the open
courtyards of the College buildings to
facilitate our students. Fatimiyah College
(Boys and Girls Campus) has been
equipped with Gym equipments for
students.

role of HRC has become increasingly vital
in helping job seekers. HRC of Jamaat has

been received out of which by the grace
of Almighty Allah, and proactive efforts
by the committee members, 64 applicants

positions and many are in the process of

All avenues are being explored to reach
the prospective employers. Response

commendable. HRC is confident, that with
the continued support of the Community,
there will be a sizeable enhancement in
